As the boys venture off the list, we present to you a new sub-series: THE DOGS OF WAR... for... you know... bad war movies. This week on Dogs of War: the kitchen is heating up as Jason and Brendan go to pawn their DVD player for a copy of 2012's Iron Sky on DVD. The problem becomes obvious when they get home and Brendan's VHS player won't accept the disc; this means war. Jason has dug a trench and erected many machine guns around Brendan's home as Brendan prepares to send his tiny doggy, Max, to the moon in a homemade rocket to establish a beachhead for his family's new life. Eventually they watch the movie on the internet and talk about it on Skype. Next week: back to one of the worst German dudes. Questions? Comments? Suggestions?

Back to the Brits! This week, Brendan and Jason start their trek through the Empire Top 100 British Movies of All-Time that haven't been covered on the show already. Look, this is as close as we are going to get to an updated BFI Top 100, okay? To start off, they discuss the Tomas Alfredson-directed espionage thriller Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy starring Gary Oldman. Jason makes his case for this as a "dad spy" movie but the guys also discuss the film taking away all spy genre expectations, the inclusion of a homosexual character to up the tension, the most understated Oldman performance of all time and much more.   Next week: the guys watch Gareth Edwards' Monsters.

Before they move back to the realm of British, Brendan and Jason decide to talk about a "Canuck Puck," a Canadian film pick from each of them that they have never seen before... and it's Brendan's turn first - Porky's. Yes, it's the Floridian Canadian classic from director Bob Clark that answers the question "can something that ages this horribly still be funny?" with... well, you'll have to listen to find out. Kim Cattrall's committed howling performance, super horny "teenagers," washroom peepholes, clumsy attempts at addressing racism in the 50s - it's all here, baby!   Next week: the second of our two Canuck Pucks.

They talk about their misconceptions before watching the film which were based on reputation and Oscar nominations, Egoyan's use of a fractured narrative and very selective plot details, Sarah Polley's real life informing her ability to reach certain emotional and maturity peaks at such a young age, the plot tying into the Pied Piper of Hamelin and much, much more.   Next week: the guys rally towards the top of the list by discussing the 2nd best Canadian film of all-time (according to TIFF) - Mon Oncle Antoine.

It's time for some Maritime shine as the guys break down the classic 1970 rags-to-rags (?) story about two Nova Scotians traveling to Toronto for the promise of better work - Goin' Down the Road. How authentically Maritime is this movie? Did director Donald Shebib use authentic transients and war veterans for key scenes?
